Wednesday 3rd October 2012
Dust off those blue suede shoes because this 1950s rock 'n' roll band really knows how to party! They play chart hits alongside their own tracks to produce a big beat vibe brimming with retro glamour.
The Atlantics are a Devonshire five-piece rock 'n' roll and rhythm 'n' blues band who write and play their own original tracks alongside classic hits. They formed in 2008 and over the past few years, they have played all over the UK and are beginning to play internationally.
'Rock Around The Clock', 'Great Balls of Fire', 'Blue Suede Shoes', 'Be Bop a Lula'… the hits just keep on coming, and are mixed in with the band's own original tracks.
With guitar, double bass, sax, piano, drums and four vocalists, The Atlantics create a fabulously authentic 1950s sound, a terrific atmosphere and a big beat vibe that keeps people dancing all night. You won't be able to sit still for long!
